## Summary description

GOOBAY CAT 8.1 Patch Cord is a 0.5 m S/FTP (PiMF) network cable with RJ-45 connectors on both ends and gold-plated contacts.

## Long description

GOOBAY CAT 8.1 Patch Cord S/FTP (PiMF), RJ-45 to RJ-45, 0.5 m in grey is a short, shielded patch cable designed for high-speed local network connections. The cable features S/FTP (screened with individually foil‑shielded pairs) construction and gold‑plated RJ-45 contacts to ensure reliable transmission for Cat 8.1 and 40GBase‑T applications. With a 0.5 m length it is intended for short patching between switches, routers and high‑performance network devices where reduced interference and signal integrity are required.
Advantages
The S/FTP (PiMF) shielding reduces electromagnetic interference and crosstalk for stable high-frequency performance. Gold‑plated contacts improve contact reliability and corrosion resistance. The cable uses high-purity conductors and a halogen‑free sheath for improved signal quality and safer use in confined indoor environments. Its compact 0.5 m length minimizes excess cable clutter in rack and desktop installations.
Suitable for
 Patching between switches and routers in server rooms and data cabinets
 Connections to high-speed network equipment supporting Cat 8.1 and 40GBase‑T
 Short runs in workstations or AV setups requiring shielded cabling
 Environments where reduced electromagnetic interference is important

Usage recommendations
For best results use this shielded Cat 8.1 patch cord in short runs where high throughput and low interference are required. Pair with compatible shielded equipment and properly grounded racks or patch panels to maintain shielding effectiveness. Avoid stretching the cable and maintain bend radii recommended by the equipment manufacturer.
